I don't know about that. The baja claws are an extremely aggressive tire to go on a jeep that will only be going on a few mild trails a year, according to the girl's father.

Either size will be fine with a trim and some bumpstops, 31s will require a steering Stop adjustment or different control arms or wheels to keep from rubbing at full turn.
